It's been too long >.>
Last entry was.. back in the start of May, and now it's the middle of June >.> I really need to post here more often. And it's not even that the ideas aren't there either, I've tried, but I usually get dis.. ooh, shiney.
*Sigh* Anyways, there's a lot to tell, a lot to give backstory too, a lot of things happening.
Major thing happening right now, Jamie wants to tell her story, and she's doing so through me, so I've really been in the mood to write recently. Was going to do more today, but it's been about 80 all week for the past few weeks and then decides to jump to nearly 110 for all of today >.>. Gradual temp changes are no real issue for me, but when it jumps like that [up or down] it kinda knocks me upside the brain-box for a day or so.
Got that bit of writing started and more filling the brain-box (I'm sure there's lots of trashed papers in Jamie's room, I'm just not brave enough to go in there and check right now) and even talked with one of my friends who's a professional, published, writer who said he'd give it a look once I was ready to show it and give me an appraisal of my writing ability.
Girlfriend is in a happy writing mood, going to get a good writer/speaker to take a look at the finished work, and writing is a happy outlet besides. Bastion is a happy tiger :)
Besides that story, there's a plotline finishing up, and 'chapter 2' being written on Divergence as well.
For all that happy writing though, all is not grand in Bastion-land. Although I'm finding new friends, old ones are leaving. They seem to have issues with me that they haven't made any sense when they explain why to me (you did this thing to us once and we don't like you anymore.. but this person who does the same thing continually we love talking to. Meer?) But this type of thing happens to me regularly unfortunately, so I guess I've grown cold to it's effects. I haven't talked to my friends from HS pretty much since graduating unfortunately.. either they vanished from the radar, or things just get in the way of us talking anymore. New friendship cycle beginning I suppose, wish it didn't mean leaving the old behind though.
The newest addition to the friend-list is a fellow FFN writer, and a very good writer at that (and that's other's opinions as well as my own) and I'm finding as I'm reading her LJ history that she's a song lover as well ^_^
While I'm fighting through my 'Brock-like' behavior (which happily I manage to keep mostly in my own head at least.. usually >.>) it is amusing (and annoying) to note that Jamie is playing the jealous girlfriend routine, usually when I'm trying to start a friendship she is deciding wether they'd make a good *cough* bed-companion (yes, my girlfriend is openly bi. Do I care? Am I supposed to?) So to have her acting like this seems to be a happy sign, now if only I could get her to put away the naginata..
I hope if the last paragraph scares her, it's not too bad.. I'm trying to stop doing that, but it's hard. Reading her LJ history, I'd be guessing that she's probably laughing, but people have been taking right turns on me lately.
Additionally.. probably by the time someone else reads this, my dad is headed to the local courthouse to convince them that actually.. you know.. Following the law is a good idea and to stop trying to steal money from him. You would think that after nearly 15 years my parents divorce would be done with court battles.. not that we would still be in the beginning stages of getting things cleared up.
Anyway.. to close this entry on a high point, going through LJ history has shown me to some quizzes which I've taken and I wanna put the results up here for your amusement.
Edit: >.> they don't want to work for me.. am I doing something wrong?
